Collecting The "Look What I Pulled" & Pull Rates Thread

I don't have that kind of luck really. Never even pulled a secret rare from any source. I remember when I lived in Kentwood Michigan I wasn't getting too much luck from packs there either.
 
Yeah im from Kalamazoo MI, and my luck varies. Also sometimes my fiancee is the one getting lucky with packs while I get nothing and sometimes the opposite happens.
 
My Meijers are near Novi.


Today I went to Meijers and got a tin, I also found a single Boundaries Crossed pack in the card section by the checkouts. It was the only one in store. I got some 3 packs as well.

The tin had a Reshiram Ex from Next Destinies. The only other good card I got was a Bianca Full Art...
Yup, the single pack had a Bianca Full Art in it. That's my third Bianca Full Art, the last one I got also came in a single random pack.
I'm thinking about getting a 3rd booster box from Boundaries Crossed since I'm still looking for 4 full arts from the set, probably the most of any set I currently collect. I mean I can't honestly get a Celebi full art in 3 booster boxes can I?
 
You're much better off buying the FAs individually rather than gambling on a full box, especially if that's all you need. While I'm not sure which FAs you're missing, you could almost certainly buy all 4 for the price of a booster box or less. Landorus EX FA seems to be the most expensive one at $30-35. And you're almost guaranteed to not get all 4 of the missing FAs from your booster box purchase; you'd have to have ungodly good luck to even get 4 FAs in one box, let alone get all 4 of the ones you're missing without any duplicates.
 
I got 2 Charizard Ex boxes yesterday, the second one had Mega Charizard Y Ex, Blastoise Ex and Furfrou Holo.



I don't like buying ex's because I feel they are worthless if I buy them as opposed to getting them from a pack. plus I prefer opening packs. I've only bought 7 cards.


I bought the last 4 ex's I needed from XY because there were many sets coming out at the time and I didn't want to continue buying packs looking for the two cards I wanted, and I've bought 3 cards from Dark Explorers since I'm never going to be able to open packs to look for those cards. A booster box costs 200 dollars and you only get 1 full art in a box, packs by themselves are like 8 dollars.

I could have bought that Genesect Full Art but getting it in a random tin is so much more fun. And these packs are still available in promo boxes and tins unlike Plasma Storm where they are extrememly hard to get for a cheap price.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

2 Packs Phantom Forces

Manectric EX Rare Holo
Leavanny Reverse Holo

Gliscor Rare Non Holo
Talonflame Reverse Holo
 
I opened my first ever tin and got a Rayqauzza EX Full Art this last weekend and was so stoked! First ever tin and first ever full art!
 
The other day I bought 10 packs of Legendary Treasures from Cool Stuff Inc in Maitland. While standing in the store, I impulse bought two packs of Phantom Forces, though we really didn't need them. These are for my son BTW. ;) He opened the packs that night. Among some other nice cards, he pulled 114 Resharim from LT and 120 Mega Manectric EX from PF. Not too shabby for a impulse when, especially when there were only several PF packs left in the box! The kid flipped out. :D
 
Went to target looking for some Primal Clash packs, but they had none. They did have Elite Trainer Boxes, which have been impossible to find. I took the only Phantom Forces one, and seriously considered switching for a Furious Fists one since I've bought so many Phantom Forces packs and have a lot of the cards I like from that set (my metal deck). Decided to stick with my decision cuz I liked the Mega Gengar Sleeves more than the Mega Lucario Ones.

First 3 packs were non-holo rares. Then I pulled a FA Xerosic, followed by a RA Gengar EX, then a SR Mega Gengar EX! First ever secret rare! Last 2 packs were non-holos, but I did get a reverse holo Gengar Spirit Link! Also got a reverse holo Hydreigon. So stick with your gut when picking out cards.
 
I opened a Gengar Spirit Link pack and got a Hawlucha Ex and a Mega Charizard X Ex.


^^^^ Also something similar happened to me with Furious Fists, I bought 9 loose packs and got Mega Lucario SR, Lucario FA and Dragonite Ex.

At the same time I also bought 4 Phantom Forces packs and got a full art Gengar. The other packs were non holo rares. The ultra rares were mostly in every third pack.
 
I went to Dollar Tree to buy some Phantom Forces 3 packs. I got 17 of them and in the 8th pack I got this.

tumblr_ni6zghcUwr1r12rm4o10_r1_1280.jpg

Was really happy as it was one of two full arts I don't own. I saw some openings on Youtube and at best was hoping for a Manectric Ex since that's the only regular ex I'm missing from the set, and I didn't know full arts were in them. It was the only regular ex that wasn't in my 2 Phantom Gate boxes as well. I did the bend test as I was opening them (not on every pack) and found if they were super bendy they contained either an uncommon or non holo rare, if they were stiff they contained either a reverse or the full art Xerosic. I haven't pulled any holos/regular ex's from these so I don't know if those are bendy. I didn't bend them in the store I just bought a stack of them from the back of the box.

Also fun thing to note the pack with the Xerosic was the only pack I did the Icey&Sauce shake shake trick with, just completely random. I also got two new reverses in the packs.

I went to Gamestop today got 4 packs of Phantom Forces and I pulled:

Diancie Rare Holo
Swalot Reverse Holo

Dialga EX Rare Holo
Robo Substitute Reverse Holo

Mightyena Rare Non Holo
Enhanced Hammer Reverse Holo

Gengar Ex FA (Sweet! =D)
Litleo Reverse Holo

I also bought a DS Game there for only 4$ Magical Star Sign RPG
 
I opened a Boundaries Crossed Booster box and got a Landorus Full Art and a White Kyurem Full Art.

That brings my total number of Full Art's pulled in the month of January to 11.

tumblr_niwihpXIrY1r12rm4o4_1280.jpg

That brings my total number of ultra rares pulled this month to 31 with 3 SR's, 11 Full Arts and 17 ex's.

tumblr_niwihpXIrY1r12rm4o5_1280.jpg
 
I bought a Keldeo Ex tin today and pulled a Virizion EX, Black Kyurem-EX, and a Full Art Reshiram (LTR).
 
I brought the Hoenn Collection yesterday in GAME (Primal Kygore EX version), I didn't pull anything fantastic but I managed to get a DCE that I needed for a deck and a holo Gigalith, regular rare Glaceon and a reverse Swalot.
 
Went to a prerelease today (8 packs), and got the following cards:
EXs:
Camerupt-EX

Ancient Traits:
Magcargo
Bunnelby
Ludicolo
Torchic
Elektrike
Sceptile

Other Rare Holos:
Manectric

Reverse Holos:
Staryu

Kyogre Spirit Link
Torchic AT
Ludicolo AT
Rhyperior AT
Solrock
Interestingly, I pulled 5 Torchic (2 AT) and no Combusken or Blaziken...
My friend's brother also pulled a SR Switch and FA Teammates

I also bought three Black/White Kyurem boxes which totaled to ~$3 per pack. Bargain. Pulled these:
UR:
Thundurus EP FA

Reverse Holo
Panpour NXD
Great Ball BCR
Exploud PLS
Snorlax BCR
Joltik PLS (-.-)
Tranquill EP
Starmie NXD

Yesterday I bought a Kyorge Elite Trainer Box, 3 Primal Clash boosters, 2 Ditto 3 packs, 5 Phantom Forces boosters, 5 Furious Fists boosters, 7 Next Destinies boosters all from Target and Walmart.

In the ETB I got a Sharpedo Full Art, also an Aggron Ex in the other packs.

Today I opened the rest of the boosters and got Reshiram Full Art, Xerosic Full Art, Manectric Ex and Seismitoad Ex. Really happy I finally got Manectric Ex since it was the only ex from PF I hadn't pulled in 2 Phantom Gate boxes and tons of boosters. Seismitoad Ex is one of 2 ex's I haven't pulled from Furious Fists, now the only card I haven't gotten from FF is Heracross Full Art. If I get it Furious Fists would be my first finished set.

tumblr_niwihpXIrY1r12rm4o9_r1_1280.jpg
 
Today I went to another Target and got 2 of the Furfrou 3 packs and 4 loose packs, I made sure the loose packs were all Aggron packs as I heard those were lucky.

In one of the 3 packs I got Trevenant Full Art, in the second I got Primal Groudon Ex and in one of the loose packs I got a miscut Maxie's Hidden Trick.

tumblr_nj27jj2eeg1r12rm4o1_1280.jpg

Also after a month of buying an advertised near mint card but was actually dirty with 3 creases and returning it and buying another one the actual mint condition card I wanted came in the mail today. It is off course the Gardevoir Secret Rare from Dark Explorers.

Thankfully Primal Clash has not gone in the same tracks as previous sets, in Flashfire my first 12 packs yielded one holo and in Phantom Forces my first 10 3 packs yielded no ex's. Though I did find the regular ex's in Phantom Forces were harder to find then the full arts. I'm still missing like 3 holos from PF though...

Also here's my January pull picture, with 42 ultra rares this beats any previous record by at least 10, I also tie December with 3 secret rares pulled in the month.
tumblr_nj27jj2eeg1r12rm4o4_r1_1280.jpg
 
Went to target to get a Furious Fists Elite Trainer Box, to go with my Phantom Forces one, and my pre-ordered Primal Clash one. Instead there was a single Groudon Primal Clash Elite Trainer Box with the Furious Fists ones, so I impulse bought it. Great decision!

Got 6 non-foil rares, but also 4 reverse foil Ancient Trait Cards and a Weakness Policy. But also pulled a RA Mega Aggron EX, and then a SR Dive Ball! Summary is:

SR Dive Ball
RA M-Aggron EX

Reverse Holo AT Rhyperior
Reverse Holo AT Gorebyss
Revese Holo AT Magcargo
Reverse Holo AT Medicham
Reverse Holo Weakness Policy

Hope my pre-ordered ETB has similar pulls!
 
I've went to a prerelease a couple of hours ago, and I've got:

M Primal Groudon EX FA
M Gardevoir EX FA

I'm so happy :D
